Can a Licensed Professional Counselor transfer a license to North Dakota as a military spouse?
Yes. North Dakota is a member of the Counseling Compact, so a Licensed Professional Counselor holding a multistate/compact license can practice in ND without re-applying. Explicit military-spouse provision: practice on home-state license in any Compact state, plus expedited home-license process when moving.
Your counseling licensing board in North Dakota
Under NDCC chapter 43-51 the board must immediately begin processing a self-identified military spouse application, complete a substantially equivalent application within 30 days, and issue a no-fee temporary license while full requirements are finished.
